a rectangular section of wilderness will be set aside as a new wildlife refuge. its dimensions are 6*10^3 meters by 3*10^4 meters find the area of the land in square meters put answer in scientific notation.
a. 90*10^8
b. 18*10^7
c. 1.8*10^8
d. 9.0*10^9
To find the area of the land in square meters, we need to multiply the length by the width.
The length is given as 6 * 10^3 meters, and the width is given as 3 * 10^4 meters.
Multiplying these values together, we get (6 * 10^3) * (3 * 10^4) = 18 * 10^7 meters^2.
Therefore, the area of the land in square meters is 18 * 10^7 meters^2, which is answer (b) in scientific notation.
To find the area of the land in square meters, we need to multiply the length by the width.
The length of the land is given as 6 * 10^3 meters.
The width of the land is given as 3 * 10^4 meters.
To calculate the area, we multiply these two values:
Area = Length * Width
Area = (6 * 10^3) * (3 * 10^4)
When multiplying numbers in scientific notation, we add the exponents:
Area = 6 * 3 * 10^3 * 10^4
Area = 18 * 10^7
Therefore, the area of the land is 18 * 10^7 square meters.
The correct answer is b. 18*10^7.
To find the area of the rectangular section, all we need to do is multiply the length by the width.
In this case, the length of the rectangle is given as 6 * 10^3 meters, and the width is given as 3 * 10^4 meters.
Multiplying these two values, we get:
(6 * 10^3) * (3 * 10^4) = 18 * 10^7
Therefore, the answer is option b. 18 * 10^7 square meters.
